Charlie tells Raymond: 'You're like a computer. 'Write about the special things that Raymond can do.
------------
Raymond has a excellent memory, observation power and calculation ability. He can remember a lot of telephone numbers on a telephone book at night. At a restaurant, a waitress was surprised because he told telephone number of her to Charlie. Moreover, he can count a lot of things quickly by his excellent observation power. He counted accurately the toothpicks that had dropped on the floor by the waitress.
In addition, he can win in the casino by his excellent memory, observation power and calculation ability. Of course, He accurately remembers prizes (eg. $89,796). He is exactly like the computer.
However, the most special things that he can do is, a change of Charlie. Charlie was selfishness. Raymond changed Charlie into gentle man. This is the most special things.
Yoshi,
ReplyDeleteSounds like you really enjoyed the book. At the start, you can see Charlie wants to change Raymond (or not deal with him at all) but by the end, Raymond has cast a spell (of love?) on his brother.
I thought Dustin Hoffman in the movie was amazing as Raymond, by the way, didn't you?
Good posting, well done. What's next?
